The planning of this mini city is for a population of approximately 400,000 people in a balanced community, based upon sustainable environmental principles. As the world becomes concerned with climate uncertainty, the creation of self-supporting and sustainable communities becomes of the utmost importance. The planning principles have this as the most important determinant. Coupled with this are the objectives of social amenity and housing for all socio-economic groups within the community.

The centre of the development is a commercial area providing opportunity for all classes of activity and retail interactions.
